Here are some comments from the event:

Garston Today

You said:

  1. The High Street needed improving, there are too many vacant shops and not enough variety.
  2. There should be more green open space, under-used and industrial sites should be opened up to the public.
  3. Regeneration should be inclusive of Garston Under the Bridge as well as the Village.

 

A Future Garston

You said:

  1. The high street should offer a wide variety of bars, restaurants and cafes, like Lark Lane or Allterton Road.
  2. You wanted to see more high quality housing in the area with a mix of tenures.
  3. Garston should be a destination and offer spaces to shop, relax and enjoy.
